CVO Road Glide Custom

Harley-Davidson Custom Vehicle Operations has unveiled the new 2012 CVO Road Glide Custom.



With a planned production run of just 2,100 units, the obvious distinguishing characteristic of the CVO bike is its paintjob. Buyers will have a choice of White Gold Pearl and Starfire Black, Maple Metallic and Vivid Black or Candy Cobalt and Twilight Blue, all of which come with the powertrain finished in black gloss powdercoat.

But it’s not just the colour scheme that sets the CVO apart from a standard Road Glide. It gets Harley-Davidson’s most powerful V-twin engine, the Screamin' Eagle Twin Cam 110 motor that produces 165 Nm (122 lb/ft) of torque from its 1,803 cc (110 cubic inches).



Also included is quite a sound system, based around a Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio radio with CD/AM/FM/WB playback. It’s linked to a fairing-mounted amplifier that gives 100 watts of power per channel, and there are two main speakers and two in-dash tweeters. Completing the package is an 8GB Apple iPod Nano, an iPod radio interface and an iPod holder fitted into one of the saddlebags.



Among the other items of standard equipment are anti-lock brakes, cruise control, chrome Agitator Custom wheels, a Wind Splitter smoked windscreen and a low-profile tank console.



The 2012 CVO Road Glide Custom has an MSRP of $30,699 in the United States. In the United Kingdom, it’ll cost £29,199.
